New York City, 1942. Fifteen-year-old Iris has just moved from a swanky uptown neighborhood to the Lower East Side after her mother’s death and her wounded father’s return from the war. Now she has to attend public school, make all new friends, and deal with her detective father, who forbids her to assist with his cases even though he can’t get around very well with a missing leg. But Iris can’t resist doing her own detective work when a boy from her school ends up missing. Soon she’s lying to her father and her new friends, staying out late at dance clubs, and doing what she can to solve the case. Will her snooping get her into more trouble than it’s worth? (Grades 7 & up)
